What you can start today and why it makes a difference. Recently I was headed home and I was convicted by the Lord. I wanted to make a podcast episode, or listen to my audio book, and like a whisper softly in my heart (He likes to whisper to...

Sometimes it’s very hard to stay “up”. The pressures of life get oppressive. But we are told in Scripture that these “various trials” are meant for our growth and maturity. Here are some thoughts that might encourage you (or help you stay encouraged) and some sources that help me...

When Russia invades Ukraine, or inflation drives the price of everything up, or any number of other things in our lives that threaten us or our children, we must remember the Truth which teaches us that “we have not been given a spirit of fear, but of power, of...

Why are we surprised when life is stressful or challenging? Why does suffering throw us for a loop and cause us to doubt God? Doesn’t he say that difficulties are the normal way of life for a Christian? That we shouldn’t be surprised when trials come upon us? As...

What’s the point of preparation? What is a reasonable scenario? (Not the cooky ones that say aliens have poisoned the food supply so they can take over our nation by mind control, but only Jewish people are immune…. you get the idea.) Am I prepared to live for even...

This Fatherhood Friday we get some dad jokes (good ones) and a report from the first class we did on Biblical Citizenship in Modern America. An excellent kick-off session with a special message from Kirk Cameron focused on the National Monument to the Forefathers. He presents the recipe the...

I want to briefly mention some of the things that you can look forward to here at PreacherDad.com . We are engaged in a cultural war if you haven’t noticed. Some people get frustrated because they don’t know how to actively participate in the culture war. How can you...

This episode brings you up to date on the goings on in our neck of the woods. Also a bit of encouragement to grow not weary in well doing, to lay aside “besetting weights,” and check your worldview....

In today’s episode we discuss being a student of life, local involvement in the culture war, and the need for reformation. Did you know that our Founders believed Christianity was the key to being free? They believed, and I agree, that the only way to preserve liberty was to...

How do we come back from the precipice of destruction in which we find ourselves as a nation? How can we restore sanity to this insane world? Well, quite simply, we must apply Biblical principles to our society. From entertainment to entitlements, from police work to parks and rec…we...

Easy parenting, or perhaps more precisely “selfish parenting”, is a very subtle yet seductive danger to our children. It is remarkably tempting, when our children need training of various kinds, to put it aside because it would be too hard, time consuming, or inconvenient. Yet the danger to our...

On Fatherhood Friday, it’s Christmas eve! So today we want to remember the incredible doctrine contained in some famous carols. Listen and rejoice that Christ is born!...

There and back again – a Preacher’s tale. Someone challenged me to write about my blogging journey. That might be a good exercise for me, but it could be boring for my readers. But maybe I can make it fun. Read on to find out more! I started blogging...

“If it’s good enough for Jesus, it’s good enough for you.” That’s the basic philosophy we have about family Christmas gifts in our home, and with a large family something like that is a necessity. We have to manage the Christmas season somehow or we end up buried under...

It might seem cliche, but one of the very best ways to make a difference is to vote! “Vote early; vote often!” is the old joke but as long as you don’t vote more than once in a single election…yeah, vote often! Seriously, many people overlook this option or...
